SA -- ri) + weeds were held in the count; AUGUST 10 BE SPLASH MONTH Red Cross Swimming and Life Saving Instruction to Be Given at Pool August will be a splash month in Bismarck. The city commission, the Ameri- can Red Cross, and the boys’ and girls’ welfare committee are co- operating to sponsor a big swimming instruction campaign in the city ‘swimming pool. Red Cross swimming tests, which will be the basis of the instruction and practice, will be given by Her- bert O’Hare, manager of the swi ming pool, and by W. G. Fulton, di tector of boys’ work in the city. O'Hare is a Red Cross senior life guard, and Fulton is qualified to give the Red Cross tests as a life- saving examiner Fulton attended the American Red Cross swimming and life-saving institute at Lake Minnetanka last June, receiving practice and instruction in water safety, teaching, life-saving; and speed swimming. Boys and girls who can swim 50 feet will be classed as A. R. C. be- ginners, Members ef the Swimmers’ class fre required to swim 100 yards, us- ing two or more different strokes, swim 50 feet on their backs, per- form straight front or racing dives in good form, and recover an object |" under six or eight feet of water. Beginners and Swimmers are pre- sented buttons by the Burleigh county chapter of the A. R. C. when they pass examinations. The junior life-saving class, wh'ch Fulton thinks should be the goal of every Bismarck boy and girl, re- quires that a person be able to un- dress in the water and swim 100 yards without rest, to surface dive and recover objects, approach, turn, and carry a victim, break holds, and demonstrate artificial respiration successfully. Senior Red Cross tests and in- struction wil: be given if enough men and women over 17 years of age desire it, Fulton said. Six hours of instruction should be given before the test is given the candidate. Six 40-minute lessons are planned for every entrant in the swimming classes. The swimming program will be ended this year at the end of the month, with a big water pageant and tarnival, Thursday, Friday and Saturday ‘will be classification days. Tests will be given from 10 to 10:45 each morn- ing, and from 4:30 to 5:30 each afternoon. Cards with signatures of the child’s parents are necessary for registration. * Attendance at the 6:30 mer swimming period has been irregul: Business men wishing to have in- struction should enter the early morning class. Information on the tests may be obtained at the swimming pool. Water in the pool was changed this morning, O’Hare said today. The manager says that the water this year is cleaner than it has ever been before. The city bacteriologist, William S. Koller, says that the water in the local pool is as clean as any swimming water in the state and that it will cause no sickness. Children stay in the water too long in most cases, O’Hare said, eene them in a weakened con- ition. ‘SLICKERS GET JAIL SENTENCE Four men who tried to make a living with three matches and a tubber band were each fined $100 and sentenced to 30 days in the county jail when they pleaded guilty to charges of obtaining money under false pretenses at 4 p.m. yesterday. Justice Roland H. Crane heard their pleas and passed sentence. They gave their names as James Hillard, Charles C, Harrington, Mike Bass, and H. P. Green, all transients. The four nien were .arrested by Police Chief Chris Martineson, after attempting to swindle Roy Burget, Indiana, out of a watch and three dollars. Wads of bills, which proved to be only magazine and newspaper sovered by bank bills, miscellaneous check books, deeds to farm property, and. marked playing cards were found in possession of the four men, Oklahoma Primary Is - Unmarred by Battles * Oklahoma City, Okla., August 8. —(AP)—Fairly complete district returns from — yesterday’s state rimary election early today in- icated that rone of the eight in- cumbent congressmc: who stood for reelection was having a. hard con-| test.

Columbus, 0., Aug. 8—(P)— When Ohio goes Democratic in 3 presidential year there gencrally is some unusual reason and if Gov. Alfred E. Sinith licks Herbert Hoo- ver in the state in November it will be largely because Ohio has turned &@ somersault and gone wet. The wns state has consist- ently defeat all proposals smack- ing of alcohol and elected dry can- didates to state and federal offices except a few congressmen in consist- ently wet districts. In most in- stances dry majorities have been in- creased. us far there has been noted little or no in the tastes of rural Ohio, so if Smith wins the state it probably will be by the vote of the cities. Realizing this, democratic leaders expect to exert their efforts chiefly in the urban centers, where they hope to roll up large majorities. These majorities will have to aggre- gate, it generally is conceded, around 100,000 to offset the anticipated rur- al republican majorities. Hamilton county (Cincinnati), which gives wet majorities of 75,- 000 up and republican majorities around 40,000 for candidates accept- able on the prohibition question, is expected by democratic leaders to turn in strong for Smith. At the other end of the state is Cleveland, with almost a million. population. Clevelanders like to try new things. Classed republican, Cleveland showed its independence four years ago by giving La Fol- lette and Wheeler a majority, al- though the Coolidge ticket swept the state by almost half a million majority. H. G. Brunner, democratic chair- man, therefore sees in Cleveland [See possibilities for the Smith- ‘obinson ticket. If he can once get the voters headed toward Smith ;guests, following attendance by Mr. he feels nothing can stop Smith|Coolidge at a performance in which sweeping the city.

The matter of farm relief is not expected to be a vital issue. Neither party will be able to set up working organizations until sf- ter the state primary, August 14, when new state committees will be elected. These committees then se- lect executive or campaign commit- tees to conduct the campaign. The republicans have several com- mittee contests developed along the same line of cleavage as in the April Rocca primary between the fol- lowers of former Sen. Frank B. Wil lis and those espousing the Hoover cause. The Hoover element is ex- pected to win, as it was able to ca: a majority of the districts in April. Such a victory would mean the selec- tion of a campaign organization that will put in its Best licks for the Hoo- ver-Curtis ticket. ai Another factor expected to be’ of considerable importance in the cam- aign is the election of two United tates senators, one for the full term and one to fill the four-year vacancy caused by the death of Sen- ator Willis. The senatorial cam- paign undoubtedly will be closely allied with the presidential. Sen. Simeon D. Fess, a dry, unopposed for renomination, will carry the Hoover banner, although he was al- lied with the Willis group last His opponent, despite that fite are seeking the democratic nomination. probably will be either George White of Marietta, former congressman, or Charles V. Truax, state director of agriculture. For the short term, Sen, Cyrus Locher, a recognized dry, who suc- ceeded Senator Willis, is fighting it out with Graham P. Hunt, Cincin- nati, a past leader of the wets and an exponent of modification of the Volstead law. Rep. Theodore E. Bur- ton, Cleveland, and Chief Justice Carrington T. Marshall, Zanesville, are favorites in a field of five for the republican short term nomination. Both Burton and Marshall are con- sidered dry, but Marshall the dryest. Burton probably will be the target of the irreconcilable Willis follow- ers, who blame him with being re- sponsible chiefly for Hoover contest- ing Senator Willis’ bid for the Uhio delegation to the Kansas City con- vention. Charles Dick of Akron and “General” Jacob S, Coxey of “Coxey’s Army” fame also are can- didates, CAL FISHES AS BRULE BROILS Superior, Wis.
